US Elections 2012 Part I: The Primaries/Caucus

[ganbaru]

The thing is, what we might call a conspiracies, they would only describe it as mere strategy. Some of them even see the president's policies as some kind of treason.

Of course, the creation of the Tea party was instrumental in driving the GOP agenda

Now, the Republicans are counting on the stupidity of the Americans to forget all the filler busting and obstructionism come election day, and claim that Obama is full of broken promises.






I gotta give it to the Republicans though, those guys are master spin doctors. They have created so much noise and confusion that most people can only say "We hate the government", which is exactly that GOP wants. Of course, there was no unified "We hate the government" chanting when Bush was in power.

Now that is one of the reason why GOP complete suck right now, they will spin and control things with fear, to make the America votes scare to reelected Obama.

Obama wasnt perfect, and he could have done more but look at how America is now versus how America look before Obama was elected, i think he has done a good job and that is with all the whine and crying of GOP, Tea Party and others.

Basically... they screwed up 2000-2008 royally (or succeeded masterfully if you're on of their puppet masters) and when the vote didn't roll their way even after vote suppression and tampering (sorry, documented in both Ohio and Florida, etc) the GOP decided to have a 4 year temper tantrum and hold their breath.

The question is.... how stupid are we collectively as a nation come this fall?

Dibs on the Destructor in marshmallow form.

[Ithekro]

Wouldn't a Christmas delivery be four days late to the End of the World (2012)?

Or is world-destroying apocalypse just the gift that keeps on giving? Well, until there is no one to give it to, of course.

[Sobonok]

People will be partying earlier before Christmas this year it seems. I just enjoy looking at all these dates.

30 yrs? let's see DNC try to make that into today's soundbite ads

but no

only the savvy select few will get it

the name of the game is '08-'12 frame and DNC will have to find a novel way to defend 0bama's record , and one-up the GOP's well-deserved reputation for making effective, hard-hitting prez ads that helped swing the masses to GOP in swing states

That's pretty hysterical. But at comparing someone like Dany to Sarah Palin, even if the comparisons are technically accurate.

Who's who? (I've only read the books. I'm not too hot on American politician faces, either.)

Biden knocks Romney for "back to the future" foreign policy
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/...83P0PZ20120426

Vice President Joe Biden blasted Mitt Romney's foreign policy vision on Thursday as backward-looking and tied to George W. Bush, hammering the presumptive Republican nominee for thinking like a CEO and not like a commander in chief.

The president carries a big stick......but is it big, long, red, hard and fires stuff sticky enough to remember what kind of frosting America has for their share of cake? Or is the cake a lie which US just wastes frosting on?
